Word Or Two To Mary Lyrics - Charley Pride

A word or two to Mary, please write a letter for me 

That's what my buddy said to me today 

I couldn't keep from cryin', sad eyes are looking at me 

He said, I'll tell you what I wanted to say 

Oh, I don't mind dyin', I just hate to leave you alone 

And I wish that I could watch the children grow 

But there's no use denyin', I won't be commin' home 

Just a word or two to you before I go 

Down on my knees beside him, I begged my buddy to live 

I told the Lord to please take me instead 

But a word or two to Mary was all my buddy could give 

And just these words were all your husband said

But there's no use denyin', I won't be comming back home 

Just a word or two to you before I go 

A word or two to Mary, I must add some of my own 

He was the truest friend I ever had 

I'll keep writing letters to her to help the children along 

Tell them in a way that it's from their Dad
